Based on the academic characteristics of mathematics and a learner-centered educational philosophy, the institute researches and develops the best and most optimal math curricula and content to strengthen learners' mathematical thinking skills. The institute has led the field of math education by developing the 'CMath' and 'AP Math' programs — which popularized the concept of 'critical thinking math' — as well as the 'Gifted' program, the '1031' math and science textbook series, the '1031 Gifted Assessment,' the 'Top-Tier Math 960' series, the 'Top-Tier Clever Math' series, the 'Thinking Preschool Math' series, the 'Top-Tier Math TenTen: Inquiry and Problem Solving' series, the 'Think Math 1031' series, and a variety of multimedia math content. A New-Concept Gifted Critical Thinking Math Workbook Aligned with the Latest Educational Trends 'STEAM (convergence) education' and 'storytelling education' have emerged as key approaches for helping students discover new problems and solve them in new ways. 'Gifted Critical Thinking Math 1031' includes numerous integrated problems that combine math with science, sports, music, art, film, and storytelling, helping students approach mathematical principles and tasks they encounter in daily life with integrated, multifaceted thinking — building the ability to solve problems more creatively. Thorough Analysis of 15 Years of Gifted Education Center and Competition Exam Questions The series thoroughly analyzes and reflects gifted education center admission questions and math competition problems from 1998 to the present. It is an essential foundational resource for students preparing for gifted programs and math competitions. Customized Learning Through Step-by-Step, Topic-Based Structure The series is organized into Intro, Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, and D levels, all designed with a cyclical, spiral learning structure. Each book covers two topic areas, allowing students to choose the appropriate level and area based on their skill level. 240 Problem Types with Clear Solving Strategies A total of 120 topics are categorized into 24 problem types, helping students develop the ability to interpret problems from a mathematical perspective across various situations. The 'How to Think' and 'Step' sections provide guidance for designing solution processes, greatly contributing to the development of self-directed problem-solving skills. A Workbook That Builds Intuitive Concept Formation Logic is used to prove something, but intuition is what's needed to discover or invent something. Traditional math education presents a concept first, then shows students how to logically solve problems — an approach that often fails to spark motivation or interest. 'Gifted Critical Thinking Math 1031' presents material fused with other subjects through storytelling, then encourages students to try solving problems on their own first through a 'Try It First' section — without any preloaded knowledge that might limit their thinking — fostering intrinsic motivation, interest, and intuitive concept formation. [Workbook Composition] Organized into 4 books by stage: Book A (Numbers, Operations) Book B (Shapes, Measurement) Book C (Patterns, Logic) Book D (Probability & Statistics, Problem Solving) [Recommended Grade Level] : For 5th-6th grade students who have completed the 5th grade curriculum
